Ok, so what was the purpose of this experiment? Many of us submitted, but we never found out what it was. Would you care to share it wih us, or was the purpose simply to see how many TFPers would gladly fill in an experiment request with no obvious purpose? ;)

If you're using this information in a survey, just thought to point out that there's bias. For starters, it's pretty obvious that you're not including people in the population that's below the poverty line, after all how many poor chaps do you know that uses the computer and visit TFP?
